<li><p><em>The moon was now hidden by clouds, darkening the sky. On the horizon, lightning flashed, and a moment later a soft rain began to fall, pattering against the roof.</em></p>
<a id="more"></a></li>
<li><p><em>The oak trees lining the street, heavy with leaves, rustled in the breeze as thunder echoed through the house.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>月夜，风雨交加，两个主人公第一次独处</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>In all my life, I’d never been as sure of anything, and as much as I hoped to one day hear Savannah say these words to me, what mattered most was knowing that love was mine to give, without strings or expectations.</em></p>
</li>
<li><p><em>I drove my elbow hard into his solar plexus and heard a sudden groaning exhale; then I grabbed Randy’s hand and quickly twisted it to its snapping point.</em></p>
</li>
<li><p><em>I swung an elbow blindly and felt it connect; I felt cartilage crunch as I turned, ready for whoever came next.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>女主给了男主一本关于自闭症的书，男主误以为她对他父亲好是因为她在study他父亲，所以一时失去理智，伤害了两个无辜的人<br>但是更深层的原因是他害怕他父亲确实患有自闭症</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>Wherever you are and no matter what’s going on in your life, when it’s the first night of the full moon——like it was the first time we met——I want you to find it in the nighttime sky.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>“但愿人长久，千里共婵娟”</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>There are memories for both of us, of course, but I’ve learned that memories can have a physical, almost living presence, and in this, Savannah and I are different as well. If hers are stars in the nighttime sky, mine are the haunted empty spaces in between.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>18句（男主休假结束，踏上回归军队的旅程，读着Savannah的信）对比19句（六年后男主回到女主长大的小镇）</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>It was easy; those memories had already begun to haunt me and sometimes seemed more real than my life as a soldier.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>“我”回到驻地的第一个晚上<br>haunt这个词又出现了</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>I like the surprise of finding a letter in the mailbox and the anxious anticipation I feel when I’m getting ready to open it</em></p>
</li>
<li><p><em>I like the fact that I can lean against a tree and feel the breeae on my face when I see your words on paper.</em></p>
</li>
<li><p><em>I like to imagine the way you looked when you wrote it: what you were wearing, your surroundings, the way you held your pen</em></p>
</li>
<li><p><em>I know it’s a cliché and it’s probably off the mark, but I Keep thinking of you sitting in a tent at a makeshift table, with an oil lamp burning beside you while the wind blows outside. It’s so much more romantic than reading something on the same machine that you use to download music or research a paper.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>9-12，Savannah表达了她相比于email，更喜欢书信。<br>让我想起了高考前一直练习的作文主题：科技和人情的冲突，想起了一句cliché：从前慢~，想起了《傅雷家书》、《曾国藩家书》等等……的作文素材，以前没有读过，可能以后也没有机会去读，never before，never in the future</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>But with every new story, I’d get this sinking feeling, one that made me think that as much as we’d kept in touch, as much as we cared about each other, she’d somehow zigged while I had zagged.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>John再次休假，见到Savannah，即使他们一直保持联络，但是John依旧感觉他们都变了，Savannah搬进了她的新公寓，每天上课、当助教、听讲座、音乐会、聚会，生活十分充实；而John从会拆卸6种武器到会8种，仰卧推举又增加了三十磅</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>Do you know that I had to make excuses for you today? And how that made me feel? Here I was, singing your praises all year long, telling my friends what a nice guy you were, how mature you were, how proud I am of the job you’re doing. And they ended up seeing a side of you that even I’ve never seen before.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>John觉得Savannah和她的朋友们聚会太频繁了。自己为她在餐馆订好了座位，原本是惊喜，结果得知她和他的朋友们有约</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>They(love and caring) were the concrete bricks of our relationship, but unstable without the mortar of time spent together, time without the threat of imminent separation hanging over us.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>John结束休假，在飞机上所思</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>I watched the smoke billowing from the Twin Towers and the Pentagon and saw the grim faces of the men around me as they watched people jump to their deaths.</em>  </p>
<blockquote>
<p>9/11</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p><em>Gone were long passages in which she described the way she envisioned our life together, passages that in the past had always filled me with anticipation.</em></p>
</li>
<li><p><em>As we were drifting apart, I was becoming more desperate to save what we once had shared; like a vicious circle, however, my desperation made us drift apart even further.</em></p>
</li>
